To be fair, I think it's going to be a while before we get the necessary updates and start getting decent intakes. That takes money, and we simply don't have it right now.

Rikulec Posted November 28, 2020 Author Share Posted November 28, 2020 Jakub Słota's Management Career - May 2021 - Unia Janikowo Third Division We've been able to dominate games and create chances, but we're not finishing teams off. Still, a surprise battle for a top 3 finish is very much on as Radunia have struggled recently and we face them at home in the penultimate game of the season.

Rikulec Posted November 28, 2020 Author Share Posted November 28, 2020 Jakub Słota's Management Career - June 2021 - Unia Janikowo Third Division We managed to grind out a potentially crucial victory against Radunia only to undo the effort with poor finishing against Kotwica. Shame, but a 4th place finish is still a good achievement given the place we're in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rikulec Posted November 28, 2020 Author Share Posted November 28, 2020 Jakub Słota's Management Career - Season Review - 2020/21 - Unia JanikowoThird Division Results (regular season) - Results (championship group) Competition Performance: 4th The board expected a tough relegation battle, but we never looked like getting involved in one and ended up comfortably in the championship group. Only 22 goals conceded in 35 games paint a picture of a very solid defence, which definitely was the foundation of our success. Puchar Polski Competition Performance: Second Round We were only expected to do our best and we delivered exactly that, kicking out a team from a division above and giving Legia one hell of a game before giving in to an injury time winner. A very respectable performance. Squad This is a solid group of players and I'm sure some of them are good enough to have us mount a serious promotion challenge next year. Improvements are needed as well though, I'd kill for a consistent, creative playmaker. Garstka, Mysiak, and Ciarkowski are leaving as their contracts run out on 30th June. Transfers - Finances Just the two incomings. Neither of them set the world on fire, but they both turned out to be decent performers. As for those who left, only Kowalczuk was a first team member and he was simply not good enough. Finances are always tough at this level of football and ours are no different. Player of the Season 1st - Przemysław Kędziora - believe it or not, but in the first season of my last year's save the whole team scored 44 goals, out of which 26 were Kędziora's. And guess what - exactly the same thing happened again. He went on a mad spree in the regular season, but then other teams finally adapted to our admittedly not very ambitious tactics, significantly halting his progress. Still, there could be no other choice for this award really. 2nd - Michał Wrześniewski - in real life he has turned out to be a disappointment so far, which fortunately hasn't been the case in the game - his ability is way above the league standard and it shows. He's the main reason why we performed so well defensively throughout the campaign. A very dependable player. 3rd - Maciej Zagraba - the young loanee made the best out of his stay in Janikowo, improving significantly over the course of the season and eventually beating Jakub Żmuda to the starting XI spot. I've already extended his loan for another season, which I'm really happy about. Next Season With the right additions and perhaps some more slight tactical tweaks I can see us challenging for promotion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rikulec Posted November 29, 2020 Author Share Posted November 29, 2020 Jakub Słota's Management Career - Pre-Season - 2021/22 - Unia Janikowo Friendlies A perfect set of victories against opponents of mixed quality, including a top tier side Zagłębie and 2nd tier Widzew! Transfers This season it was all about adding depth and strengthening a couple of key areas. Krystian Mądrowski - if Kędziora struggles, we'll have the option of bringing this lad on. He sure can score goals, but he probably can't do much more than that. Szymon Pawłowski - always nice to poach a talented youngster from a local rival! Szymon Piekarski - backup for Machaj. Bartłomiej Gajda - the new shield in front of our defence to replace Mysiak. Sebastian Gwóźdź - our new starting right back. Przemysław Mycaj - he's primarily listed as a striker, but for me hopefully he's going to be the playmaker we need so badly. In addition to those signings, we've also extended the loans of Eryk Rajnisz and Maciej Zagraba, both important first team players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rikulec Posted December 1, 2020 Author Share Posted December 1, 2020 Jakub Słota's Management Career - Season Review - 2021/22 - Unia JanikowoThird Division Results (Jul-Nov) - Results (Mar-Jul) Competition Performance: Winners We absolutely steamrolled the league. Once it got going, it was never really in doubt that we were going to win the damn thing. We broke the records for the most points and wins in a season and equalled the record for the most goals scored. What else could you ask for? Squad A well rounded group of players with no one truly outstanding in terms of pure ability. We're going to see whether that level is going to suffice after the promotion. Hartwich, Gajda, and Goździk are leaving at the end of their contracts. Transfers - Finances No real stars on the incoming side. Out of those seven players I'd say Pawłowski, Gwóźdź, and Mycan ended up as solid starters, the rest had to accept the role of backups. As you can see, Mądrowski wasn't too happy, but I was never going to drop Kędziora. Experience tells me that our financial situation is only going to get better once we reach the top flight. Player of the Season 1st - Przemysław Kędziora - who else? This time he maintained consistency throughout the whole season, ending up with 34 league goals in as many games - and yet again not becoming the top scorer! I don't think anyone's going to be bothered by that though. What a player. 2nd - Bartosz Machaj - in my first season I tried to fit him into the old system by converting him to play in midfield, this year he got a chance to shine in his natural position on the right wing and he repaid me with double figures for both goals and assists. A great campaign from him, hopefully he can maintain that level of performance despite approaching 30 years of age. 3rd - Eryk Rajnisz - actually it was him and not Kędziora or Machaj who got the highest average rating in the league. The young defender was brilliant at the back, forming a great partnership with Wrześniewski and racking up some very impressive numbers. It's a shame we're probably not going to retain him for the next season. Next Season Survival has to be the aim. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rikulec Posted December 1, 2020 Author Share Posted December 1, 2020 It had already been announced, but now it's official. I was immediately rewarded with a new contract and a significant raise. I've also become favoured personnel alongside Kędziora. And we also got a very important upgrade. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rikulec Posted December 1, 2020 Author Share Posted December 1, 2020 Jakub Słota's Management Career - Pre-Season - 2022/23 - Unia Janikowo Friendlies A perfect set of wins, but Kędziora picked up a calf injury in the Elana game and will miss the first three or four league games. Transfers Evolution, not revolution. Sebastian Szczytniewski - a versatile youngster who can provide backup for centre backs or the left back slot. Marcin Goliński - I firmly believe he can develop into a very good player. Jakub Lorek - I hoped he was a little bit better to be fair, but we desperately need backup U-21 players. Rafał Włodarczyk - our new starting left back. Patryk Nowakowski - the replacement for Rajnisz, hopefully. Additionally, Mateusz Kocieniewski has been promoted from the youth team.
